I believe that StarCraftJ has never been patched before but some docs say JSTR is at 1.12 while the client says 1.00 and works just fine. I then downloaded the hashes that are released and checked them with the official v1.00 hashes and they are the same 100%. Was looking at why people said it was at 1.12 but then checked the properties on the exe and it said

File Version: 1.12
Product Version: 1.00

So this explains how people got 1.12 from when infact it is still 1.00

Yeah, I tried tellin these sucka's. If I still had the game I'd throw a big pretty pic on here so they could see. A company, especially Blizzard, would never release a game without an updater, not on online game. JSTR wasn't meant to be updated. It never sold.

Then why doesnt starcraft come with a updater?
As skywing has said before, the updater is in the patch file downloaded from battle.net, and extracted with MPQ functions found in storm.dll.
And the prepatch.lst found in war3's patch file will give you a clue what happens next ;)

I'd say that's a bad example because nearly all prepatch.lsts (if they exist) are different
